Avisynth + Virtualdub

[demonwarrior]

how do these programs fit together and interact,when running an Avisynth script can u add Virtualdub filters?what the do's and dont's?

Many of VDub filters work in AviSynth in RGB color space. They are loaded like this:
LoadVirtualDubPlugin("d:\Program files\VirtualDub\plugins\delogo.vdf","delogo")

before applying a plugin you use:
ConvertToRGB32()
then:
DeLogo()# with its sequence of parameters in form described by the plugin author (if available)
It is a good idea to only use those plugins that don't have an AviSynth version. I mainly use NeatVideo and DeLogo, also MSU Smart Deblocking.

VDub can run any Avisynth script.
VDubMod has a useful "Edit script" function.
But these days I prefer to use AVsP as my Avisynth editor.

And you can use most VirtualDub filters in Avisynth.

Read the documentation installed in the Avisynth folder.
Especially Section 4 of the FAQ: "Importing filters from VirtualDub"

When using an AviSynth script, you don't really want to use the VDub filters (in VDub) as that partially defeats the purpose of using AviSynth in the first place. You have to use Full Compression and go through a colorspace conversion, resulting in slower encoding and lower quality output. You can use the VDub filters in an AviSynth script, as explained, but most VDub filters have AviSynth equivalents as good or better than the native VDub ones. If you need a specific type of filter, maybe mention what you want to do and we can suggest something.

A single screenshot isn't of much use. Much better would be a sample. However, if they're all as low rez as that screenshot, and if they're as bad as you say, then not a whole lot can be done to improve them, no matter what you do.

There are plenty of threads here about restoring bad videos and videos from VHS sources. For specialized AviSynth help you might search the AviSynth Forum at Doom9. There have also been a lot of threads there about the same things.
